The Defensive Activation Theory: REM Sleep as a Mechanism to Prevent Takeover of the Visual Cortex

Autor: David M. Eagleman, Don A. Vaughn

Publikováno v: Frontiers in Neuroscience, Vol 15 (2021)

Regions of the brain maintain their territory with continuous activity: if activity slows or stops (e.g., because of blindness), the territory tends to be taken over by its neighbors. A surprise in recent years has been the speed of takeover, which i

Watching another person in pain activates brain areas involved in the sensation of our own pain. Importantly, this neural mirroring is not constant; rather, it is modulated by our beliefs about their intentions, circumstances, and group allegiances.

Anorexia nervosa (AN) and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) share several phenomenological features including distorted perception of appearance, obsessions/compulsions, and limited insight. They also show partially overlapping patterns of brain activat
